Re: [platform-update-dev] need an example for update api

The entry point of the model is SiteManager.getLocalSite()
The FeatureReference creation is another entry point, check the tests we
run in CVS
There is a Sample project in CVS too that should help you

Ask your questions here, I may remember ;-)

I am slowly learning the update API's myself, but I started from the upper
end (the UI) and walked my way down to the API layer. It helps
understanding some of the XML specs for sites/features/etc., as they are a
reflection of what the API's are meant for. In addition to the online help
that ships with Eclipse, take a look at the update development page:

http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/~checkout~/platform-update-home/dev.html


Also, check bug 37688: [plan item] Provide update manager operations API.
There are plans to create a simpler, operation oriented API layer for the
update functions.

There is a steep curve in learning the Update api for me.
I will be thankful to you in suggesting me some examples that
can make me walk through the minimum skelton of the api.
Or any other doccumentaion that will be useful in making it
easy for me to learn it.

Thanks in anticipation,
Vijayender
